True, i just tested it.... i never noticed this before  :o

And also just to throw this in, sometimes when i sign in there are 0 users online then they all come on all of a sudden so lots of notification things come up, anyways, i think msn puts five on top of each other then stops but then plus puts a sixth one and you can't really read it.... not too sure if this should even be fixed but oh well

I think that's the way the Messenger Plus toasts work.

That may be because it takes some time to download the contact's statuses from the server.

:^) to me thats a little boring to me. is there anyway there could be a tick box for smiles on or off??


This would be really good if that could happen

You'll have to ask Patchou. I use Custom Names, so it doesn't matter to me.

This is not a bug. Its the exact same in MSN Messenger. You wont see emoticons on notifications.

Will be displayed as :P HexDude :P.

It would be a waste of time to add that feature in because it would only cause formating problems on the notifications.

not true, MSN applies the smileys in popups =/
RE: Notifications Bug! by RaceProUK on 07-18-2004 at 06:28 PM

It's probably a case of it putting in the smileys when Custom Names are off, and not putting them in when Custom names are on, just like in conversation windows.

Only if there is something to say... and in this thread there is nothing to say because raceprouk hit the nail in saying:

And threads (like this) are read by Patchou, he only doesn't have the time to reply to everything....
